I came across this question last night on the net while taking a second iq test . I didn't totally agree with the results of the first test, because it was way higher than what I expected , don't get me wrong i deeply value intelligence as a quality i possess but I dont think that the classic online iq test are the reflexion of one self's intelligence. These tests rate the ability to solve problems from differents domains from logic, to common sense to knowledge. What i noticed from this specific test (tickle test) is that the more a person is educated the higher his/her score will be because those questions are based on not only mathematical basis, grammar but also litterature knowledge.
Do intelligence always requires education ? Is intelligence limited to the resloution of equations, or is it defined by the amount of knowledge contained in the brain ?
My answer is simple : intelligence can't be truly mesured (yet) by these tests, as the only thing they mesure is your strengh and weaknessess, how your brain works faced to logical and even illogical problems, and not your level of education.
anyway the second iq test taken was 1 point lower than the first but i won't complain anymore, after all those so called judges (tickle iq tests creaters, god complexed individuals ) put me at a comfortable (and so not deserved by my point of vue) place above in the intelligence hierarchy.
anyway i digress from the initial purpose of the post (i blame that loose mind of mine lol)
the 3 things i'll bring on that damn island, the answer is quite simple:
1. A boat. Duh, as tempting as having an island to myself is, it could be nice to go back home from time to time.
2. A lighter
3. a pen & a notebook (the use is endless: draw a map of the island, write a book, paper planes, origami....
An then again those people stranded on deserted islands didn't have the choice......
